Only if we do this (and then some), says Thomas Geoghegan, might we heal our fractured democracy. In 2008 Geoghegan, then an established labor lawyer and prolific writer, embarked on a campaign for the U.S. House. A political neophyte, he avidly knocked on doors, shook hands at train stations, and raised money--and on election night he lost, badly. But out of this humbling experience came The History of Democracy Has Yet to be Written, a manifesto for re-imagining American government in a way that is truly just, fair, and Constitutional. Combining tales from the campaign trail with an incisive vision of how we might achieve this goal, Geoghegan here makes an impassioned and witty case for the possibility of a truly representative democracy, one built on the ideals of the House of Representatives, the true chamber of the people"--Inside jacket.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Hawaii State Library Social Science & Philosophy 320.473 Ge Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kihei Public Library Adult Nonfiction 320.473 Ge Checked In Add Copy to MyList
